River gathered on Friday evening at a social club to raise money for victims of the fire at Gabriel House, and to pray for healing at St. Anne Shrine.

The Bristol County District Attorney’s office said it erroneously reported 66-year-old Brenda Cropper dead due to a “miscommunication.”

Brenda Cropper’s family describes her as a “tiny little thing” with a big smile who made friends easily. Cropper stood about about 4 feet, 11 inches tall, and her daughter Crystal Macura said her mother loved nothing more than her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, watching old TV shows, and cans of soda.
